Conclusion: unlocking certitude Bibliography IndexReviews'Provocative, seductive, and challenging are all ways to describe this book, which elaborates a critical look at (im)mobility. Rodanthi Tzanelli analyses the laugh of the Joker as the trace of a devastating pilgrimage that breaks with the possibilities of hospitality. She allows us to share multiple images of a planet that sees itself as a mirror unfolded-in-movement : this book is an unmissable portrait of a world that laughs when it must cry.' -- Adrian Scribano, CONICET, University of Buenos Aires, Argentina Author InformationRodanthi Tzanelli, Professor of Sociology of Culture, School of Sociology and Social Policy and Co-Director of the Bauman Institute, University of Leeds, UK Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
